I wouldn't do that, just download the appropiate debs from 

http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python-certbot/certbot_1.8.0-1_all.deb
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python-certbot/python3-certbot_1.8.0-1_all.deb
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python-acme/python3-acme_1.8.0-1_all.deb

run
  sudo dpkg -i *.deb
then
  sudo apt --fix-broken install
to clean up any dangling dependencies

You can find which debs to download by looking at
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/certbot

Most of the dependencies are provided in buster already, except for the 
proper versions of python3-certbot and python3-acme. If you were to 
install only the certbot deb and then run apt install (without 
--fix-broken) you'd see something like this:

# apt install
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 certbot : Depends: python3-certbot (= 1.8.0-1) but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages 
(or specify a solution).

which indicates that a particular version of the python3-certbot package 
is required. If you were to run with --fix-broken in this case instead 
of manually installing the deb linked above it would tell you that it is 
removing certbot, because the appropriate version can't be found in 
buster.
